TIL People Routinely Poop in the Shower: Ewww!

Since I read WallStreetBets on Reddit, I receive recommended posts from other subreddits.   One that I read in AIO (Am I Overreacting) subreddit was a girlfriend asking if it was strange her boyfriend pooped in the bathtub while showering and squished it down the drain with his foot.  I don't remember any of the responses, but thought this was bit strange.  (For reference, there is a lot of strange stuff in the Am I the Asshole subreddit and Am I Overreacting subreddit, especially about entitled people.)

Anyway, I mentioned the gross activity to my daughter in college.  She commented that it happens a lot iin their communal showers, enough such that the college had to post a sign to not do it.  She said that's why people wear shower shoes.   

Ewwww!
